Payment Method

This endpoint is used to inform Ravelin of payment methods being saved or used by a customer account.

The data that you use to populate the payment method varies between payment service providers (PSP) after tokenization. If your PSP is unable to provide you with a suitable instrument ID you should allow Ravelin to generate instrument IDs on your behalf by submitting either full PANs, or client-side encrypted cards. For more information, please refer to our PCI DSS documentation.

Ravelin does not accept submission of the CVV, PIN or magnetic stripe data to any of our API endpoints.

To request a recommendation at this endpoint use the Payment Method Registration checkpoint.
